When I posted my rant about my latest vet visit, it was brought to my attention that "Raven" (I honestly HATE that name, but have been too lazy to think of a new one) only had hand-me downs in his tub. So I bought him a few new things today. I'll be getting two more plants for over his hides, but here's the gist of it.

Old tub:


New, pretty tub!:



I think he likes it.


Also, he seems to be darkening up since I've gotten him. Look at his head in this photo, compared to the next one, taken just yesterday.



His body is still light in coloration, but he's getting better and it's not even been two months yet. I'm upping his prey size this week. I was waiting until his body showed me that it was ready, and this week he was fed on Monday, then out and about on Tuesday. So that tells me he's ready for more food. I didn't want to throw his system into shock.

This is the rescue that's 5 years old. Yes, that itty bitty snake is 5 years old...

And in case anyone's forgotten, here's how he was housed before:


That paper towel was his "hide box"
